The first Vinbrite wine filter was originated way back in 1966. Over the years, this filter kit has constantly been updated to keep at the forefront of home wine filtration. As Harris Filters have for some time been researching new filter media, the Vinbrite filter kit has now been slightly modified to include certain changes that will considerably increase its performance. The Vinbrite instruction express that wine makers make sure that fermentation is completed before filtering. Whenever gas bubbles are seen rising in the transfer tube, this indicates that the wine is still working. In such cases, filtering should be stopped and the wine ferment out completely. However, wine makers are often impatient and will frequently try to filter unstable wines. When filtering and handling wine in general, minute gas bubbles may be released as the wine is disturbed resulting in a back pressure buildup in the filter body, which can also affect performance. The revised filter kit has now been designed to enable the winemaker to release any trapped air whilst filtering via the vent tube and tap. The updating of this unique filter kit will keep the Vinbrite to the forefront of home wine filtration and will enable wine makers to filter wine more quickly to professional standards. The new hi-tech Crystalbrite pads are slightly thicker than the previous ones. They are extremely efficient when compared to any other filtering media. This means that, all wines, whether country or kit wines can be filtered to crystal-clear perfection, easier, quicker and more efficiently than ever before. The VINBRITE MK3 kit includes a filter body, support disc, locking ring, funnel, spanner, transfer tube, flow control clip, 6 Crystalbrite filter pads, Super Enzyme and Vin Clear sachets together with full instructions. All parts are easy to clean and sanitize.
